A displacement pump procedure to load extracts for automated gel permeation chromatography.
Automated gel permeation chromatography (GPC) effectively separates lipids from pesticides in sample extracts that contain fat. Using a large syringe to load sample extracts manually onto GPC models having 5 mL holding loops is awkward, slow, and potentially hazardous. Loading with a small-volume displacement pump, however, is convenient and fast (ca 1 loop every 20 s). And more importantly, the analyst is not exposed to toxic organic vapors because the loading pump and its connecting lines do not leak in the way that a syringe does.
